Hello Everyone,

I am a new tropical enthusiast from Maryland. I enjoy growing bananas, cold hardy palms, and other zone-defying plants. I currently have 12 or so bananas, all smaller than 3' for now as well as a musa ensete that is around the 5' mark growing like crazy indoors. I have learned lots lurking here for a year or so, and finally decided to post a brief introduction. With the extreme drought we had this summer, I was spending at least an hour a day watering. My bananas did not grow very well this year because of the 90-95 degree temps and low humidity we had, which is very uncharacteristic of this area. I'm going to be adding to my gallery soon.
